Hello. I registered my account on Upwork through the Google account. Desktop App doesn't allow me to log in by this option. It says: this browser or app can be unsafe, try to refresh the page and try again. This advice doesn't help. What's the solution?

Hi Aamna,
Could you please log in to your Upwork account through a browser? From there, please go to your Connected Services page (Settings > Connected Services), and disassociate your Google account from your Upwork account. Once done, please try logging in to your desktop app with your Upwork credentials to see if the issue persists.
Thank you.

Hi, the desktop app/time tracker is not launching, I tried uninstalling and installing it again but it doesn't work, is there a problem within upwork's system right now?

Connected services is not enabled. I have the app dowloaded but when I launch it, it does not do anything.

Hi Lakinda and Faizan,
Could you please look at the system tray where the Upwork icon should be running? Please right-click on that and go to settings and logout. Once this is done, click on the application icon and log back in.
If the issue persists, you can also try Troubleshooting tips shared in this help article.
Thank you.

I can't log on to the desktop app to track time.
I log on using Google and it doesn't go through.
I have completely reset my google account.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app.
I downloaded on another computer and still can't log on.
I have searched for answers on this ridiculous support platform.
I've been trying to solve this problem for 3 hours now.
I just need to talk to someone who can help.

Hi, I'm trying to download the desktop app so I can start working. I've tried on 2 different Windows machines and a Linuxm thinking it was my computers having the problem but same thing each time. I click on it in the download bar, it has me sign in, and then a window opens that says, "Redirecting. One moment please," and it just stays like that forever. Can someone help? Thank you

Hi, I turned on my tracker and later on realised that it wasn't tracking my time nor was it taking any screenshots. I uninstalled it, then reinstalled it again and now I'm trying to log in to the tracker app using my Gmail account... it's been redirecting for a good 30 minutes now.
